Table level Security not working as expected

abhiram342 — Thu, 26 May 2022 05:27:36 GMT

Hi Team,

I want to hide fact table , if user is not present in User Table. Please find example below

User

Alias

user1@xyz.com

user2@xyz.com

Fact Sales

DateId	SalesAmount
20220101	100

Implementation:

I have used tabular Editor and selected Fact Sales and Updated Object level Security to None

Roles:

I went to manage roles and created role with below dax code

RoleName: HideFactSales

IF(NOT ISEMPTY(FILTER(VALUES(User),User[User Alias] = USERPRINCIPALNAME())),FALSE(),TRUE())

Testing in local:

Consider my alias as user1@xyz.com

I have selected role as HideFactSales but table is hidden for me. I expect the FactSales to show because I'm valid user

Please let me if I'm missing anything.

I have published report to PowerBI Service and added my alias to Security section but it shows same behaviour. Please assist

Note: I have been assigned as contributor role to workspace.

Thanks,

Abhiram

Hi abhiram342 ，

According to your description, I create a sample, and apply your code, got the opposite result you expected.

The meaning of "NOT ISEMPTY(FILTER(VALUES(User),User[User Alias] = USERPRINCIPALNAME()))" is that user is in User Table, so you should remove NOT here, modify to:

IF ( ISEMPTY ( FILTER ( VALUES ( User ), User[Alias] = USERPRINCIPALNAME () ) ), FALSE (), TRUE () )

Get the correct result.

I attach my sample below for reference.
